A straight road joins the center of Town A to a railroad crossing
that is 2000 meters away.
The number of people living along the road is determined
by the density function d(x) = 0.5 e- 0.0001 x people/m,
where x is the distance in meters to the center of town.

a) Write down a Riemann sum that approximates the
total number of people living along the road.

b) Obtain an approximate value for the total number
of people living along the road by calculating an
integral.

b) Calculate the total mass of the rod as an integral.

c) Calculate the center of mass of the rod.

A water tank has the shape of an inverted cone,
with circular top with radius 10 feet and height 20 feet.

a)Write down a Riemann integral that approximates the work
required to take the water out of the tank from the top.

b) obtain the exact work in part (a) by calculating
a suitable integral.

A dam has the shape of a trapezoid, with horizontal parallel sides
measuring 30 ft. (bottom) and 60 ft (top).
The height of the dam is 30 ft., and one vertical side
is perpendicular to both base and top.
The dam has water up to
the top on one side. (Water weighs 62.4 lbs/ft3.)

a) Write down a Riemann sum that approximates the
total force excerted by the water on the dam.

b) Obtain an integral that gives the total force of the water
on the dam.

A certain amount of fresh water shrimp is placed in
a tank together with 2 lbs. of food, at 12:00 p.m. on January 1st.
An additional 2 lbs. of food are added to the tank every 24 hours.
After every 24 hours, 85 %
of the food either decomposes or is eaten.
